Grapefruit brings you an unbeatable tropical flavour and an energising effect that lifts your mood. Ideal for growers of every level, this strain guarantees abundant harvests and a unique sensory experience. Enjoy a creative boost and vibrant euphoria with every toke.
Grapefruit is a feminised cannabis strain that has earned fame and recognition for its exquisite grapefruit and pineapple flavour. Its origins are interesting: it is the result of crossing the legendary Cinderella 99 with a Thai sativa. From Cinderella 99 it inherits its sweet pineapple flavour, while the Thai genes add vigour and distinctly tropical notes, creating an unrivalled experience for cannabis lovers.
The history of Grapefruit includes various versions and selections over the years. Thanks to its lineage, it has become a favourite with growers and smokers alike, earning glowing reviews on specialist websites.
It is a plant that stands out for how easy it is to grow. Despite being mostly sativa, it poses no major challenges, even if you are just starting out with cannabis. Indoors, its sativa dominance means it tends to stretch quite a bit once the vegetative phase ends, so we recommend techniques such as SCROG or topping to keep its height in check.
The buds of Grapefruit are a real marvel: large, compact, low in leaf and glistening with the huge amount of resin they build up. During flowering they give off a delicious, powerful citrus aroma that lives up to the name. The long, flexible branches fill up with these beautiful resinous buds, a sight any grower would love to see in their garden.
The flavour of Grapefruit is simply unbeatable. From the very first moment, its sweet citrus aroma transports you to a tropical paradise. On the palate, notes of tangy grapefruit and tropical fruit flood your mouth for an unforgettable taste experience. This unique profile is one of the reasons why Grapefruit has become a favourite among growers and smokers.
Its effect is as striking as its flavour. With THC between 15% and 20%, this strain delivers a burst of euphoria and energy, perfect if you are after a creative boost and a clear head. Its low CBD content, below 1%, keeps the effect strong without excessive sedation. Smoking Grapefruit is like a shot of positive energy that will keep you cheerful and giggly for hours.
Much of the complexity of Grapefruit comes from its terpene profile. The dominant one, myrcene, adds a herbal aroma that complements the citrus flavours perfectly. Associated with a relaxing character, it balances the strain’s energetic drive and makes the experience more rounded.
Another standout terpene is caryophyllene, which adds a spicy, earthy touch. It not only enhances the flavour but gives it a warm, spicy depth, making Grapefruit a great choice if you enjoy a relaxed body feel.
Pinene, with its characteristic pine aroma, suits a clear-headed, focused high, while limonene contributes a citrus aroma typical of cheerful, feel-good strains. These terpenes work in synergy with the cannabinoids to deliver a complete, balanced experience.
Grapefruit stands out not just for its flavour and effects but also for its generous yield and manageable flowering time. It adapts well to both indoor and outdoor grows and delivers impressive results in either.
Indoors, Grapefruit can yield between 450 and 550 grams per square metre. Its flowering time is relatively short: it is ready to harvest just 50–60 days after the switch in photoperiod. This speed makes it ideal if you want frequent, abundant harvests.
Outdoors, Grapefruit shows its full potential, producing 700 to 900 grams per plant. Given the right space and care, it can grow into a real tree up to 3 metres tall, with long, flexible branches laden with resinous buds. Outdoor harvest comes in mid-October, making it perfect for areas where early autumn is dry and mild, which helps preserve its incredible aroma.
Grow Grapefruit and you will find a plant that is accessible to beginners and experienced growers alike. Its growing difficulty is low: with a little attention and care, you can achieve excellent results.
To get the most out of it, give it a warm, sunny climate. Grapefruit thrives in Mediterranean-type conditions, with temperatures between 21 °C and 29 °C. Good ventilation is also essential, as it prefers moderate humidity to keep mould and other fungal problems at bay.
When it comes to resistance, Grapefruit stands up remarkably well to common pests and diseases, making it a reliable option for growers of every level. That said, keep an eye out for signs of calcium and magnesium deficiency, as it has a higher demand for these nutrients. We recommend quality fertilisers to keep it healthy and vigorous throughout the cycle.
